he's in Washington.

goodnight moon. 
drift off to sleep oh ye stars in the sky
because I'm sitting down here in a cold bed waiting to be heard by the silence
wrapped up in sheets that once protected me from the monsters in my closet 

goodnight alarm clock
I hate you

goodnight guitars
even with six of you, space still feels empty
but the songs sound good

goodnight sunglasses
I've only worn you twice 
but I promise I still like you
and I promise we are still together 
maybe we just need a break, 
maybe we need to see other people. 

goodnight mom
sorry I'm still mean to grace
and sorry I messed up
and sorry family nights turn into civil war

goodnight dad
I wish you could be here on Friday

goodnight sertraline
you really aren't as helpful as the doctor said you would be 

goodnight beanies
even with seven of you I can't seem to hold in my sanity
each thread of humanity slips out of the cotton effortlessly 

goodnight mountains
you remind me of M and that's alarming
she's never even seen the peaks 
but she brought them crashing down on top of me 
like dropping a pin. 

goodnight savannah
maybe today the girls won't be so mean

goodnight grace
I try to protect you more than you know

goodnight Sadie
for being six years old 
you're pretty adorable. 

goodnight
